New rescue dog (12 yo rat terrier mix) needs a sweater.

Using stash lambs pride worsted and some other unknown worsted weight wool -

using Barbara Walkers dice check slipped stitch pattern.

Most of the patterns with openings for front legs would be a pain to knit given a slipped stitch pattern with 3 different colors. Too many ends and a lot of starting and stopping. So came up with a top down knit in the round version with double increases on shoulders worked to keep pattern in sync. It’s working and resulting in a quick and really cute knit. Once front chest is deep enough, I’ll just work back and forth on back stitches to get the length I need. Then I can work an edging around and add a belly band.
